* StillbornFranchise: Stillborn subseries, to be exact. ''Revengeance'' was successful enough that Kojima was talking about a potential sequel, but the conflicts between him and Konami supposedly put an end to whatever future installments in this subseries. As of now, the closest thing it has to a sequel is ''VideoGame/AstralChain'', a SpiritualSuccessor that combines gameplay elements of both ''Metal Gear Rising'' and ''VideoGame/NierAutomata''.

** On consoles, ''Metal Gear Rising'' is a Platform/PlayStation3 exclusive in Japan because the Japanese UsefulNotes/Xbox360 version was cancelled. Because of Konami's regional maps, this expands to the whole of East Asia and Southeast Asia.

* MemeRoleReprise: After WebVideo/{{Max0r}}'s "An Incorrect Summary of ''VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance''" gave birth to a memetic exchange between Senator Armstrong and Raiden, Creator/QuintonFlynn (Raiden) and Creator/AlastairDuncan (Armstrong) [[https://www.reddit.com/r/metalgearrising/comments/wpftra/the_original_voice_actors_of_senator_armstrong/ dubbed the infamous "Nice argument, Senator"]] exchange.

* BeamMeUpScotty: The "Standing Here I Realize" meme shows the scene where Raiden is repeatedly punching Armstrong while "It Has to Be this Way" plays over it. The song in question actually plays a bit later, during the final fight between the two [[spoiler:amid the burning wreckage of EXCELSUS while Raiden wields the Muramasa]], while the rapid-punching sequence happens in a glorified cutscene right before Armstrong reveals his nanomachines (son).
